Date: April 3rd, 2025 2:11 PM Author: ..,.,.,,,,.,.,..,.,,,.,..,,.,.,,, Like, the most rational purpose I can ascribe to the Tariffs is that they are some game theory to knock down our trade partners' protectionism. But what would we realistically build here and export en masse? Even if we have the manufacturing capacity how do you compete with Vietnamese bros earning a shiny nickel a day for making H&M clothes, or putting together iPhones, or growing oranges?

So is putting a Tariff on those countries going to make us more like Germany and Japan, where we manufacture a lot more high end goods?

How do you deal with a massive underclass that is unemployable and won't ever be Very Important Lawyers and I-Bankers. You can wag your finger at them all you want but they are still there like a powder keg waiting to blow up. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5704601&forum_id=2:#48811947) |

Date: April 3rd, 2025 2:23 PM Author: ..,.,.,,,,.,.,..,.,,,.,..,,.,.,,, Damn seems like you guys really thought this one through
So we are going to re start factories, reshore capital, train a bunch of workers to build this type of stuff (clothing, pistons), and sell it here to people here even though the cost of labor in fuckin vietnam is like 10% of the US and they already have the factories. Makes sense! |
